Orion is driving, driving, and then catches sight of Megatronus in his rearview mirror, and he immediately skids to an uncharacteristically chaotic stop. He goes into reverse, pulling back around, and double checking this time before getting his hopes up.

This one's different. His eyes and face are different. And it looks like he actually wants to see him, instead of looking down on him with cold curiousity.

Orion flips into his root mode, straightening up with wide optics. There is still a distance between them, but it's close enough to see.

He feels like he should say something, but all he can bring himself to do is stare, a million thoughts clouding his processor.
